"I don't want to think when I'm with him. I just want to be with him. " - Oakley

"For whatever reason, I trust him. I feel deep inside me he’ll never actually do anything to hurt me. And I can’t remember the last time where I didn’t think." - Travis

Travis & Oakley are best friends with Jameson & Garrison, so they spent a lot of time together.

I love that this serie went from high school to building their own lives. That gives this Serie something different.

To be honest I already knew that I would love Oakley & Travis from the past books. They did not disappoint! I loved all the moments they had with their friends and Oakley's parents!!! It makes sense that he is the way he is, how he was raised, you can really find that in his personality and the way he talks and looks at others with so much respect.

"Some people just shouldn't be parents" - Oakley's mother

I really don't understand why people want children if they don't want those children to be who they want to be and do what they want to. Everyone is different, if you expect them to follow your footsteps just don't. 

Travis deserves all the love from all the people that are important to him. It was amazing to read that everyone was looking out for each other!

--> Giving this book 5 stars doesn't mean I have a favorite couple, I really don't. All their stories are beautiful in their own way. This book just had more moments with friends and family because that was more of an option, in this part of their lives and found family will forever have my heart. This is a 5 star Serie for me!!
